Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is urging fans to help make Emirates Stadium a fearsome place for Liverpool to play on Sunday in the FA Cup third round.
The Gunners are winless in their last three matches in the Premier League – drawing with the Reds and losing to West Ham United and Fulham respectively.
The north Londoners have slipped to fourth in the table, five points behind leaders Liverpool.
“We were not at the level (against Fulham) and we were not good enough,” said Mikel Arteta.
“I don’t think we deserved to lose but we didn’t do enough to win it.
“It affects momentum that we had. Until Christmas Day we were top of the league and six days later we are fourth.
“You can be very tempted to look at things with a microscope or take the telescope and look a little bit further ahead and treat things with a little bit more perspective.
“And my job, big time, is to look with the telescope, have perspective, analyse things in a broader way and not get affected by one performance; not results, just one performance.”
He added: “There is a big history between the FA Cup and the club and we have a big opportunity (against Liverpool) to start again and make a beautiful journey.”
“We are really happy with the atmosphere that we have created at the Emirates Stadium and on Sunday can we make it even more hostile? I think we can.
“We have to be so grateful for what we are achieving in our home ground and Sunday is going to be a big one again.”
